conflict resolution Archives - Shep Hyken

Top Takeaways:

There are six core reasons why frontline supervisors fail.
1. Lack of interpersonal skills
2. Lack of strategic skills
3. Lack of conflict avoidance skills
4. Lack of trust building skills
5. Poor decision-making skills
6. Poor training
Over 80% of people leave jobs because of their relationship with their frontline supervisor.
In today’s business world, frontline supervisors are just as important as senior leadership. They interact with customers and employees day in and day out.
Companies who retain their customers the longest establish an emotional connection with them. This includes (but isn’t limited to) being friendly, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and credible.
When a customer has a complaint, find ways to get alongside the customer instead of butting heads and creating conflict. Ask them questions so that they realize you’re on their side and want to help them solve their problems.
According to research, customers who’ve never had a negative experience with you are not as loyal as customers who’ve had a negative experience that was quickly resolved.
